I have Vista Home Premium and about once a week, get the "Quicktime CoDec not installed" pop-up, when I try to import files which use that CoDec. Even though I have a working Quicktime 7.6 Player installed, I have to uninstall it, then re-download it again from Apple and then re-start, to get AVS to import these files. A week or so later, the same thing happens.
I have tried to use the AVS Updater, but I'm informed that I first have to update the Updater, in order to update other programs. But, it won't update and keeps sending me around in circles. Trying to use this program is like going along with Alice to Wonderland.
The AVS Editor will not display 1080 video from the AVC format in 16:9. It shows and edits it only in 4:3.
I see no reason why software developers need to be furnished with generic examples of these formats and files. They are available for testing online, at most video-hosting websites. Go to Vimeo.com and have someone register for a free subscription and then search for the camera or camcorder models that use the formats in question.
The AVS Editor works very well for MOV and AVCHD, when it's actually working. Too bad you could develop such a good program and then seem unable to fix bugs. It's as though the original developers left and the entry-level apprentices are the only ones still steering the ship.
